Hedge trimming needed

Alesha from Saint Andrews

Hi, I was about to rent a hedge trimmer from hire pool for a quick job and saw there pricing! I realised it might be a better idea to see if anyone owns a trimmer and would like to do the job for the $50 I was going to spend renting it. It’s only a few camellia bushes that need a tidy up and figured the money is better in someone’s pocket rather than a big franchise.

Here’s the bushes that need trimming. Ignore the lawns we’re mowing them tomorrow 😂 also open to borrowing someone’s trimmer if they’re happy to lend!

We’re in Saint Andrews (neighbourly hasn’t updated my address.)

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.

But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.

Are you a Te Huia fan? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Tenants trash home, spray graffiti inside and outside

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A Hamilton landlord has been awarded thousands of dollars after tenants left a rental property riddled with graffiti, damage and piles of abandoned furniture, then failed to show up to their own Tenancy Tribunal hearing.

The Tenancy Tribunal has ordered two former tenants of the Inverness Ave property to pay $2,585.83 after their bond was applied to cover unpaid rent, cleaning, rubbish removal, lock changes and repairs.

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
